8:46 pm
stands of our people and his spiritual obligation in supporting the palestinian people and the residence of gaza as well as the continuous targeting of ships linked to israel, and this is clear in our continuous operations forces have said that they will not hesitate to target all sources of threat in the arabian and red seats within the country's legitimate right of self-defense. they've also warned that any aggression against yemen by the us or the uk will not go unanswered and unpunished, the washington designated answer movement as a terrorist organization. the antololla resistance movement has described the us move to redesignate the movements as a terrorist. position as quote a badge of honor resignation of the united states does, i mean here in yemen, they don't care about that, but they are honored to to have that relisten as a terrorist organization, because we know and as said abdul malik have said united state is just the face of the crime, united states is one of the country that have destroyed, i mean the have destruction

8:48 pm
violation of our sovereignty. mean after 10 years of war on the yemeni people a siege on land, air and sea, and to add to that, they are targeting us with new aggression. this is new stage of the conflict. what does this reflect? it reflects violation of sovereignty, further injustice towards people. since mid-november, hemen forces have carried out operations against israeling ships in the red sea. they've said that the operations are aimed at forcing the israely regime to stop. war on gaza and to allow medicine and food into the territory. the emmy arm forces have also made it clear that the red sea operations will continue until those goals are achieved. washington and london have supplied money, weapons and diplomatic cover for the zinus occupation of palestine. they are actively promoting

genocide, ethnic lensing, racism, parthide, pruel, dehumanization and extreme barbarism in. by palestine, it's obvious who is on the side of genocide, britain, france, canada, the netherlands and others and germany, especially, and on the side of right, on the side of morality is world public opinion, yemani government, the western hijamonic powers and their zionist alli have faced the disgraceful defeat in gaza in the face of the resilience and steadfastness of hamas and other palestinian resistance groups. germany military has single-handedly posed the big. threat to the economic functioning of the israeli occupation by forcing it out of the red sea and further promising to stop the movement of ships to the occupite territories if the aggression against gaza continues. in response to the yemini military's actions, the us formed so-called multinational coalition in the red sea under the guys of protecting international trade, which in reality was attempt to protect the status quo
8:50 pm
and regional waters that have traditionally been in the service of western interests. yemeni military's efforts have been noted for being... highly sophisticated and precise, the yemeni uh attacks have been extraordinarily effective, first of all, uh, shipping costs uh are rising, have risen, insurance for ships is going up uh, and this will this will only uh get worse, so israel is taking a a pretty significant economic hit, major shipping companies have had to halt operations in the red sea, and to take new longer routes and the us has been scrambling to pressure the saudis to avoid a peace deal with yemen. yemen's retaliatory strikes has also halted all commercial activities in the port de villat in the occupied territories. yemen has in fact set new equation with global consequences and has pushed the us from a position of dominance to one of defense, having to react and succumbed to the resistance demands.
